I did finish quite a few things last week. This little dress had been sitting on the dress form….for weeks.
All she needed was buttons and a hem (can you tell they are not my favorite steps?) to be completed. She was only about a week late as a birthday present for our little neighbor girl, but she was finally given to her rightful owner.
A little 60’s sundress made with vintage fabric for the skirt….for me, sewing just does not get any better.
Other projects finished–a pair of chambray bubble shorts for my class, a little girl’s caftan (I. am. in. love. with. this. one!) and a jacket for my class project as well. I have to turn those in this week for grading, but as soon as I get them back I will certainly show you.
And the blouse! It’s finally done….hand-stitching and all (please remind me of that fact next time I feel like silk is a great option).
I will show you that soon too! I need to photograph it.
Anyone accomplish anything out of the pile last week?
beautiful!! I love it!
Very cute!
I was very proud of myself as EIGHT things disappeared from my pile this week! 7 of them only needed the finishing touches– strings tied and cut and such– two dresses, a bucket hat, a pair of shorts, a skirt, and two pairs of leggings. I also am really bad about cutting things out and not sewing them together. So, I finished a shirt from that pile (worst. material. ever) and luckily it still fit my daughter!

As usual, your work is top-notch and so beautiful! Such a lucky girl to have received this beautiful gift.
This dress is adorable! Do you happen to have the pattern available or plan to tut this? As I usually am, I’m totally impressed with your creations. I did manage to complete a few things – some burp cloths, ruffled baby bloomers and if I can break away from my computer and bracelet!
